The Minority on Wednesday called on the government to formally clarify the position of Major Abubakar Sulemana in the national security apparatus. A statement signed by Minority Chief Whip, Mr Doe Adjaho said "conflicting statements by Major Sulemana himself and various government officials have left Ghanaians confused as to his status in the security service."

It said Major Sulemana has been carrying himself as a member of the national security and recently granted an interview to the Ghanaian Chronicle that he would not resign from his position. The minority said top government officials were reported to have contradicted that claiming that Major Sulemana held no recognised appointment with the national security apparatus.

"It is shocking that a person whose status is not clear and not bound by any formal code of appointment should for such a long while have access to the very top echelons of the security agency, including access to sensitive national security reports.

The minority thus called on government to clarify the situation and questioned "how many more Sulemana's do we have parading in the security apparatus without clearly defined appointment from the government".
